Oaty ANZACS

Anzac biscuits are probably one of my alltime favourite cookies, ever since I was little I've always been a sucker for old fashioned cookies and biscuits, I have my nan and grandma to blame for that. Everytime I was at either of their houses there was always Anzacs, Ginger snaps and rock cakes located in that unreachable jar ontop of the counter just waiting to be eaten.

My grandmas rock cakes were literally to die for, I've never been able to perfect her recipe, she had this special way of making every single one taste Better than the last. I wouldn't say that they were the best for you, but they made you feel happy whilst eating them.

Soooo the other day I was asked to make Anzacs, of course I agreed to it. But then I realised how unhealthy they really are, how much sugar they contain, really cancels outs the goodness of the oats.

So being true australian patriot I am I decided to clean up the recipe..kinda winging it and hoping for the best result.

They turned out a lot better then I thought, with no added sugar I thought they would have tasted like wood, but I was pleasantly surprised, and they were very much appreciated.
